Do I need a music stand?

Is there a concert for the students to perform in?

Answer: There is a concert on the final night for the students. We have a time limit for this performance of c.5mins and there is no set dress code – people tend to go smart/casual.

What time does the course finish and what time should I book the train for?

Answer: The course finishes on the Friday evening and departures are the next morning. A train sometime between 9am and 11am would work.

Do I need to bring my piano accompaniments?

Answer: Yes! Although extremely talented, our pianists prefer that you bring music with you as they do not know every part by memory. 🙂

Whats the schedule for the week?

Answer: In the morning you will receive your individual lessons, piano sessions, and technique classes. Later in the week, we will also allocate mornings for the Advanced Performer mini-masterclasses. After lunch we have slots for the extra classes – flute choir, circular breathing, baroque class etc. From approximately 2.30pm each afternoon, you have the amazing opportunity to attend the main masterclasses given by our tutors. This 3 hour session will be split between two tutors and they will each work with two students from the Intensive Performer course. There will be a recital from a different staff member every evening from Monday to Thursday followed by snacks, drinks, relaxation and table tennis!
